Always interested in the nootropics, chemist, particularly those whose effectiveness is backed by clinical evidence.
Let's define "nootropic." I assume the term implies "smart drug," not merely "brain cell regeneration." But I'm curious as to its more technical definition.
I know lithium, for example, increases grey matter in the brain, but I suspect many wouldn't call it a smart drug! (I am curious, however, whether short-term or low-dose lithium augmentation -- either in healthy or bipolar population -- does has some positive effect, either during or post-use of the drug. i.e., can I take the drug for a month to repair some acute damage?
Thanks chemist
